On a long Wikipedia talk page, finding recent posts can be difficult as they
can appear almost anywhere on a page. Talk page history offers a clue, but you
have leave the talk page, and select the edit.

Is it not possible to highlight selected posts using the CSS :target selector.
Here's how.

1. Add a CSS id to each post

2. Display a summary "infobox" of recent posts on the left, such that each one
has a URL with its unique #target-id.

3. Then clicking on, for example, the third-last post, would instantly display
it, with appropriate highlighting (similar to the way that citations are shown
in footers), using the :target selector.

4. It would also be nice if each post include a "last" and "next" link, so you
can more easily move up/down the posts in chronological order.
